File Under "Be Careful What You Wish For"

Dear 47% of Dems who want a primary challenger for Obama,

Here comes your man.

can't we blame cain?

Major Woody said...

Oh, yeah, that's just what we need! A centrist to pull the party back from the left, to undo the radical socialist agenda that Obama and his comrades enacted! Like, um, bailing out Wall Street, and passing health reform that'll force us all to buy private health insurance, and ramping up the war in Afghanistan, and such like!

Personally, I'd love to see a primary challenge. It'd be good theater. The candidates can all talk about all the great progressive stuff they're going to do, and we can all nod our heads seriously, and then laugh, and laugh, and laugh!

ARRRGGGGHHHH! I hope that the "professional left" is pleased with a conservative democrat primary opponent. They thought Obama didn't go far enough. Bayh would help the Republicans repeal everything that has been accomplished. This just sucks!!

FastMovingCloud said...

Major,

It would not be the teater you think. they would not talk about the "progressive stuff" they would do but any progressive stuff they could un-do.

Jay Schiavone said...

Alternatively, such a challenge would allow Obama to run on a more liberal agenda as a contrast to the nakedly corporate Bayh. Obama would have the opportunity to be genuinely deferential to his most zealous supporters, which would invariably increase his popularity. Let Bayh follow the other Blue Dogs to ignominy.

jaytingle, that's hilarious. O'Blowme or Bayh, WTF cares? WTF can tell the dif between those two on the one hand and Dumbya on the other?

Well, speaking of Dumbya. Turns out he was an antiwar peacenic that actually lobbied himself against invading Iraq - "I was a dissenting voice." The Dissenter v. The Decider. The epic telling of the gripping story of one President's monumental struggle against confusion.

Probably palled around with Cindy Sheehan.

I wonder if he lobbied against fast moving clouds too?

Still the idiot.

We all secretly aspire to take down their leader, Big and tanned boner, and then invade Republicorpse because they pay better and the benefits...you just won't believe the benefits! Doing it at voting booths just won't work. We'll have to start in the streets from scratch.

so running your base under the bus helps to win elections? Gosh what did i know?

Guess i will just have to keep expecting to have my vote count. Duh, Silly Rabbit. Votes are for obeying the One!
